[0001] The present invention pertains to catalysts. More specifically, the present invention pertains to catalysts useful in hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions.
INTRODUCTION
[0002] . Reduction Of esters is one of the most fundamental organic reactions and is useful for synthesis of a variety of useful organic alcohols. The reduction of esters is typically accomplished using main-group hydride reagents, such as LiA1H4, or using molecular hydrogen.
The use of hydride reducing reagents is inconvenient and expensive, particularly on a large scale;
furthermore, this approach generates large amounts of chemical waste. The hydride reduction method can also be dangerously exothermic at the stage of quenching and it can be difficult to control. The catalytic reduction of esters under hydrogen gas is, in all respects, a very attractive 'green' alternative to the classical hydride reduction.

The catalytic reduction of esters under hydrogen gas is, in all respects, a very attractive 'green' alternative to the classical hydride reduction.
[0003] A key aspect of the ester reduction with molecular hydrogen is the catalytic system utilized in the process that can rapidly bind and split molecular hydrogen to give a transition-metal hydride. The development of highly efficient and useful catalysts and catalytic systems for hydrogenation of lactones, esters, oils, and fats is an important need in chemistry.
Particularly, developing hydrogenation processes operating in the temperature range of 20 to 100 C using less than 1000 ppm (0.1 mol%) catalyst under relatively low H2 pressure (1 ¨ 50 bar) is highly desirable. Among the few catalysts and catalytic systems capable of converting esters and lactones into alcohols and diols under hydrogen gas, the presently most useful and efficient are complexes of transition metals, such as ruthenium, with bidentate phosphine-amine or tetradentate phosphine-imine ligands as described in Publication No. US
2010/0280273 Al and in Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 7473. Typical ruthenium catalyst loadings of 500 - 1000 ppm (0.05 ¨ 0.1 mol%) are used, however, the major drawback of such methods is the need for a large amounts of base (5-10 mol%) such as Na0Me, thereby reducing the product selectivity and generating large amounts of chemical waste due to the need for product neutralization and extensive purification. Furthermore, no hydrogenation of naturally occurring esters, e.g. plant oils such as olive oil, to give unsaturated fatty alcohols was reported with the ruthenium catalysts. Fatty alcohols behave as nonionic surfactants due to their amphiphilic nature. They find use as emulsifiers, emollients and thickeners in the cosmetics and food industries, and as industrial solvents. Fatty alcohols are also very useful in the production of detergents and surfactants, and they have a potential in the production of biodiesel.

Fatty alcohols are also very useful in the production of detergents and surfactants, and they have a potential in the production of biodiesel.
[0004] The development of green chemical processes and the use of biomass for hydrogen production have attracted much attention in recent years. Significant progress in dehydrogenation of bio-alcohols (chiefly ethanol) has been achieved with heterogeneous catalysts, however, at the cost of using drastic reaction conditions, such as high temperature (>200 C) and pressure Therefore, designing well-defined homogeneous catalysts for the dehydrogenation of alcohols under mild conditions represents an important scientific and practical goal.
[0005] There has been little progress in the area of acceptorless dehydrogenation of primary alcohols since Cole-Hamilton and co-workers demonstrated dehydrogenation of ethanol catalyzed by [RuH2(N2)(PPh3)3], where an excess of NaOH, high temperature (150 C), and an intense light source were needed to achieve TOF = 210 h-1, after 2 h (D.
Morton, D. J. Cole-Hamilton, I. D. Utuk, M. Paneque-Sosa, M. Lopez-Poveda, J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. 1989, 489; D. Morton, D. Cole-Hamilton, J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. 1988, 1154; and D. Morton, D. J. Cole-Hamilton, J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. 1987, 248). In recent years, several new homogeneous catalysts for acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols have been developed and studied, such as the systems published by Milstein and co-workers (for a review see: D. Milstein, Top. CataL 2010, 53, 915). However, all these new catalysts are inactive at temperatures below 100 C, for example, for converting ethanol and propanol to hydrogen and ethyl acetate and propyl propionate, respectively.

[0006] Therefore, there remains a need for efficient metal catalysts for the hydrogenation of esters, lactones, and fats and oils derived from natural sources, which could operate under base-free conditions and using relatively low reaction temperature and hydrogen pressure. There also remains a need for catalysts capable of efficient alcohol dehydrogenation under mild, and preferably neutral, reaction conditions, for environmentally benign production of esters and lactones from alcohols and diols, respectively, accompanied by formation of hydrogen gas.

[0046] Hydrogenation Process
[0047] The present application additionally provides a catalytic hydrogenation process. The catalyst complexes of Formulae II and III described above, have been found to show high selectivity toward reduction of the ester groups in the presence of C=C double bonds. This provides a useful way of deriving unsaturated alcohols from natural products such as, but not limited to, olive or canola oils, under mild reduction conditions.
[0048] In one embodiment, there is provided a process for hydrogenation of esters using metal catalysts based on the LNN' ligand of Formula I. According to specific embodiment, the substrates are compounds of the following formulae:
G, o 10 0 ¨ C2 C
G, o 10 0 ¨ C2 C
[0049] The term "substrate", as used herein and as commonly understood, refers to the reactant that will be converted to a product during a catalytic reaction Groups G1 and G2, simultaneously or independently, represent a linear, branched Ci-C.40 or cyclic C3-C40 alkyl, alkenyl or aromatic group, optionally substituted. Also, one may cite a situation when G1 and G2 together form a C4-C40 saturated or an unsaturated radical. The substrate of the hydrogenation reaction can be any organic compound containing one, or more than one, carboalkoxy group. In this respect, natural fats such as olive, canola, corn, peanut, palm and other plant oils are useful substrates that can be reduced to form a mixture of alcohols.
[0050] The reduction or hydrogenation reaction proceeds, generally, according to the one of the reactions scheme below:
o H2 _mom. Gio""NoH + G2-OH
Gi4 0-G2 [cat]
0 rTh H2 yo 2 G1 "OH + HOI¨\OH

Gi.)(0 wherein G1 and G2 are independently selected from any optionally substituted hydrocarbon group. For clarity, where multiple substituents G1 occur in the same molecule, it is understood that each of these substituents can be a different optionally substituted hydrocarbon.
[0051] When the substrate is a monoester or a lactone, the products are alcohols or a diol, respectively. The naturally occurring triglycerides, oils and fats, can be reduced to glycerol and the corresponding fatty alcohols.
[0052] According to one embodiment of the invention, the process of catalytic reduction of esters implies the usage of at least one of the metal complexes 1 or 2, hydrogen pressure, and optionally a base and a solvent. The base may be necessary in those cases when the metal catalyst 1 contains one or more halogen atoms bonded to the metal. The treatment with base can be done prior to the reduction or in Alit( by adding base to the reaction mixture during hydrogenation. The catalysts and pre-catalysts of this invention can be used in a wide range of concentration, preferably between 10-1000 ppm, and the loadings of 500 ppm or less are particularly preferred. The preferred amount of the catalyst will depend, as it is known to the person skilled in the art, on the type of the substrate, and increasing the catalyst loading should result in faster hydrogenation. The temperature at which the hydrogenation can be carried out is comprised between 0 C and 150 C, more preferably in the range between 50 C
and 100 C
and, as it is known to the person skilled in the art, the reaction rate will increase with increase of the reaction temperature. The hydrogenation reaction needs a pressure of H2 gas and should be perfoimed in a suitable pressure vessel. The surface area of the reactor as well as the hydrogen pressure, as it is known to the person skilled in the art, can greatly influence the reaction rate.
The greater are the hydrogen pressure and the surface area of the reactor, the faster is the hydrogenation reaction rate. One may cite the hydrogen pressure in range of 10-200 Bar. Again, the person skilled in the art is well able to adjust the pressure as a function of the catalyst load and of the dilution of the substrate in the solvent. As examples, one can cite typical pressures of to 50 bar (5 to 50>< 105 Pa).

[0053] It should be well understood, however, that the catalyst complexes described herein are also useful in catalyzing hydrogenation of substrates including functional groups other than esters. The table below provides a non-limiting list of substrates and corresponding products that can be formed from a catalytic hydrogenation reaction using a catalyst of Formula II or III

[0055] The present application further provides a process of catalytic dehydrogenation using the catalyst complexes of Formulae II and III. For example, this catalyst or precatalyst is suitable for dehydrogenation of C2-Ci, (n=4-200) alcohols possessing one or more ¨CH2OH
groups thereby affording hydrogen gas and the corresponding esters or lactons, according to the following scheme. In one embodiment this process is a homogeneous dehydrogenation process, that can be used in place of the existing heterogeneous techniques, preferably using base-free reaction conditions and avoiding high reaction temperatures.

[0056] Accordingly, one embodiment provides a process for dehydrogenation of alcohols using metal catalysts based on the LNN' ligand of Formula I. According to an embodiment of the invention, the substrates are compounds of the following formulae:
R = C1 - Cn alkyl or aryl substituents (optionally substituted) mOH
m = 0 - 5
R = C1 - Cn alkyl or aryl substituents (optionally substituted) mOH
m = 0 - 5
[0057] In this embodiment, R groups, simultaneously or independently, represent a linear, branched C1-C40 or cyclic C3-C40 alkyl, alkenyl or aromatic group, optionally substituted. Also, one may cite a situation when R is C4-C40 saturated or an unsaturated cyclic radical This implies that the substrate can be any organic compound containing one, or more than one, hydroxyl (-OH) group. When the substrate is an alcohol or diol, the products are an ester or a lactone, respectively.
[0058] According to one embodiment, the process of catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation implies the usage of at least one of the metal complexes of Formulae II or III
and (optionally) the use of a base and a solvent. The base may be necessary in those cases when the metal catalyst of Formula II contains one or more halogen or alkoxy (-OR) groups bonded to the metal. The catalyst can be treated with base prior to mixing with the substrate or in situ by adding base to the reaction mixture during dehydrogenation. The catalysts and pre-catalysts described herein can be used in a wide range of concentration, preferably between 10-1000 ppm, and the loadings of 1000 ppm or less are particularly preferred. The preferred amount of the catalyst will depend, as it is known to the person skilled in the art, on the type of the substrate;
and increasing the catalyst loading should result in faster dehydrogenation. The temperature at which the dehydrogenation can be carried out is comprised between 0 C and 200 C, more preferably in the range between SO C and 150 C and, as it is known to the person skilled in the art, the reaction rate will increase with increase of the reaction temperature. The dehydrogenation process can generate a pressure of H2 gas and, in such case, can be performed in a suitable pressure vessel, if necessary equipped with a pressure-release valve.
and (optionally) the use of a base and a solvent. The base may be necessary in those cases when the metal catalyst of Formula II contains one or more halogen or alkoxy (-OR) groups bonded to the metal. The catalyst can be treated with base prior to mixing with the substrate or in situ by adding base to the reaction mixture during dehydrogenation.

The dehydrogenation process can generate a pressure of H2 gas and, in such case, can be performed in a suitable pressure vessel, if necessary equipped with a pressure-release valve.
[0059] It should be well understood, however, that the catalyst complexes described herein are also useful in catalyzing dehydrogenation of substrates including functional groups other than alcohols. The table below provides a non-limiting list of substrates and corresponding products that can be formed from a catalytic dehydrogenation reaction using a catalyst of Formula II or Substrate Product' alcohols ester alcohol aldehyde alcohol ketone diol lactone amine + alcohol amide amine + alcohol substituted amine amine + alcohol imine Substrate Producta ammonia-borane aminoboranes ammonia-borane borazine amine imine amines guanidine alcohol + thiol thioester thiol sulphoxide alcohol + phosphine acyl phosphine a H2 is also a byproduct of these reactions. It is either liberated from the reaction as H2 or transferred to an acceptor.
[0060] As noted above, a byproduct of the dehydrogenation reactions is H2.
Accordingly, the present application further provides a process for producing H2. The process can conveniently make use of readily available substrates in a straightforward catalytic dehydrogenation process under relatively mild conditions to generate H2.

[0064] 2-aminoethyl diisopropylamine (6.32 g, 0.044 mmol) was added to 2-picoly1 aldehyde (4.70 g, 0.044 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 1 h. The obtained imine was diluted with methanol (15 mL) and NaBlia (1.66 g, 0.044 mmol) was added portion-wise during 1h. Then, all volatiles were removed under vacuum, and the residue was re-dissolved in 20 a& of dichloromethane. The solution was filtered through a short pad (3 x 2 cm) of A1203. The aluminum oxide was then washed with 10 mL of diehloromethane and the collected filtrate was evaporated and dried under vacuum for 1 h. The product was obtained as a yellow oil (8.41 g, 90 %).

[0080] Example 7 - Hydrogenation of esters using complexes 1
[0081] tBuOK (15 mg, 0.13 mmol) was added to a solution of complex 1 (51 mg, 0.10 mmol) in mL of THF and the mixture was stirred for 3 min. 1 mL of the obtained solution was mixed with methyl benzoate (2.72 g, 20.0 mol) or other desired substrate in 6 mL of THF or toluene.
The mixture was then placed into a 75 mL stainless-steel reactor (Parr 4740) equipped with a magnetic stir bar. The reactor was purged by two cycles of pressurization/venting with H2 (150 psi, 10 Bar) and then pressurized with H2 (725 psi, 50 Bar) and disconnected from the H2 source.
The reaction was conducted for 1.5 h at 100 C in a preheated oil bath. At the end of the reaction time, the reactor was placed into a cold water bath and it was depressurized after cooling to the ambient temperature. The product benzyl alcohol was obtained after evaporation of all volatiles (THF, CH3OH) under vacuum. The results are shown in tables 1-4 below. See table 2 for a complete list of tested substrates.

[0082] Example 8 - Hydrogenation of methyl benzoate using complex 2
[0083] 1 mL of a solution containing 4.7 mg/mL of 2 (0.01 mmol [Os]) in THF or toluene was added to a solution of methyl benzoate (2.72 g, 20.0 mmol) in 6 mL of THE or toluene. The subsequent manipulations were carried out following the procedure in Example 7.
[0084] Example 9 - Hydrogenation of olive oil using complex 2
[0085] 0.6 mL of a 4.7 mg/mL solution of 2 in toluene (containing 0.006 mmol [Os]) was added to a solution of olive oil (1.86g. 2.00 mmol) in 6 mL of toluene. All subsequent manipulations were carried out following the procedure in Example 7 using a 7 h reaction time. The product mixture was evaporated and dried under vacuum for 1 h. Further separation of the fatty alcohol from glycerol could be performed by hexane extraction or by centrifugation and decantation of the fatty alcohol from glycerol.
[0086] Example 10 - Hydrogenation of methyl caproate using complex 3
[0087] 1 mL of a 4.2 mg/mL solution of 3 (0.01 mmol) in THE or toluene and tBuOK (22.6 mg, 0.2 mmol) were added to a solution of methyl caproate (2.94 g, 20.0 mmol) in 6 mL of THE or toluene. All subsequent manipulations were carried out following the procedure described in Example 7.
[0088] Example 11 ¨ Synthesis of NH2(CH2PPH7
[0089] In a 500 mL flask, 50.0 g (0.191 mol) of PPh3 was dissolved in 200 mL
of THE and 4.00 g (0.571 mol) of granulated Li was added. The mixture rapidly changed color to bright-orange, then to dark-red. The reaction was stirred overnight, and then the product solution was filtered through a glass frit into a 500 mL flask. Slow addition of 19.3 g (0.166 mol) of 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride to the filtrate (Caution: Exothermic reaction!) afforded a light-orange solution that was left to stir for an additional 30 min and then was treated with 3.00 g of H20. Solvent removal under vacuum afforded a viscous residue. The crude product was washed with 3 x 20 mL of hexane and the remaining white slurry was extracted with 70 mL of toluene and filtered through a short plug (2 cm x 1 cm) of Al2O3. The toluene extract was evaporated using a rotavap and subsequently dried under vacuum to give 34.69 g (91 %) of crude (83-85 %) NH2(CH2)2PPh2 as a light-yellow oil. This product was used without purification in the synthesis of Example 12.

[00102] Example 16 - Typical Procedure for Acceptorless Alcohol Dehydrogenation
[00103] A 50 mL Schlenk flask equipped with a stir bar was charged with 0.052 mmol of Complex 2, 3, or 5, 0.5 ¨ 1 mol% of tBuOK (with 3 and 5), and the calculated amount of substrate (1000:1, substrate to metal ratio) under argon. Then, the flask (attached to and vented through an argon manifold) was placed in an oil bath, where it was heated at a temperature slightly exceeding the boiling point of the neat alcohol. The conversion was monitored by 1H
NAIR spectroscopy using 0.6 mL samples retrieved from the reaction solutions through the septum stopper with the help of a syringe.

of THF. The mixture was stirred for 1 h, then evaporated and dried for 1 h under vacuum.
The oily residue was re-dissolved in 15 mL of toluene and was slowly (over a period of 1 h) treated with 1.5M
solution of DIBAL in toluene (16.5 mL, 24.75 mmol) (Caution: exothermic reaction!). The product solution was stirred for 30 mm, and then quenched with 1 mL of water (Caution:
exothermic reaction!). The resulting suspension was filtered through a short plug (2-1 cm) of basic alumina and the solids were washed with THF (3x10 mL). The filtrate was evaporated and dried under vacuum for 3 h to give the product as a yellow oil (3.79 g, 71 %).

[00116] Example 21 - Imine and ester hydrogenation using complex 7
[00117] Complex 7 was further tested in hydrogenation of compounds with polar C=X
bonds. There has been much recent interest in the catalytic hydrogenation of esters. Although the perfolinance of the "state of the art" industrial catalysts is impressive, further improvements are highly desirable to (a) reduce the reaction temperature, preferably to as low as 20-40 C, and (b) reduce the catalyst loading, preferably to less than 0.05 mol %. Guided by these considerations, complex 7 was tested in the hydrogenation of several benchmark substrates, shown in tables 1-4, above. Note that all of the reactions shown were performed at 40 C.

Guided by these considerations, complex 7 was tested in the hydrogenation of several benchmark substrates, shown in tables 1-4, above. Note that all of the reactions shown were performed at 40 C.
[00118] In an argon glovebox, the required amount of a 1.9 mg/g solution of 4 in THF was added to the desired amount of base (tBuOK, Me0K, or EtOK). The obtained mixture was then mixed with the substrate (0.02 - 0.20 mol) and transferred into a stainless-steel Parr reactor (75 mL or 300 mL) equipped with a magnetic stir bar. The reactor was closed, taken out of the glovebox, tightened and connected to a hydrogen tank. After purging the line, the reactor was pressurized to 725 psi (50 Bar) and disconnected from the H2 source (with the exception of reactions conducted in the 300 mL reactor using 0.2 mol of substrate). Then, the reactor was placed in an oil bath preheated to 40 C. At the end of the reaction time, the reactor was moved into a cold water bath for 5 min and depressurized.
[00119] The results of the above hydrogenation experiments demonstrate that an outstanding ethanol dehydrogenation catalyst might also have superior efficiency in hydrogenation of substrates with polar C=X bonds. Catalyst 7 is particularly successful for the reduction of alkanoates, giving an unprecedented 20 000 turnovers in 16 h for ethyl acetate and 18 800 turnovers in 18 h for methyl hexanoate, both at 40 C. The best turnover number (TON) reported to date for this type of substrate was 7100 in 18 h at 100 C for methyl hexanoate, using a ruthenium dimer {RuH(C0)[N(C2H4PiPr2)2]/2 (Spasyuk, D., Smith, S., Gusev, D.
G. Angew.
Chem., Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 2772-2775). For another comparison, the best Firmenich catalyst, RuC12(H2NC2H4PPh2)2, would theoretically need 27 h to produce 18 600 turnovers for methyl octanoate at 100 C, on the basis of the reported TOF = 688 h over a 2.5 h reaction time.
(United States patent application publication No. US 2010-280273). Complex 7 is also a competent imine hydrogenation catalyst, giving a particularly high TON = 50 000 for N-benzylaniline.

[00121] A mixture of diethyl ether and THF (2:1, 15 mL) was added to a mixture of Complex 3 (640 mg, 1.53 mmol) and tBuOK (172 mg, 1.53 mmol) and the resulting solution was stirred for 5 mm. During this time the color changed from yellow to dark purple, then to dark green. The product solution was placed into a freezer at -18 degrees Celsius for 15 min and subsequently filtered through a glass frit. The solvent was removed under vacuum to yield 532 mg (91%) of a mixture of two isomers of Complex 4. The major isomer was obtained in a pure form as a bright yellow solid (340 mg, 58%) after recrystallization of the mixture from 5 mL of toluene at 60 C.

[00123] Example 23 - Crystal Structure Determination of Complex 7
[00124] Single crystals of complex 7 were grown by slow diffusion of hexanes into a saturated solution in dichloromethane. The data was collected on a Bruker MicrostarTM generator equipped with Helios optics, a Kappa NoniusTM goniometer, and a Platinum-135 detector. Cell refinement and data reduction were done using SAINTIm (SAINT (1999) Release 6.06;
Integration Software for Single Crystal Data. Bruker AXS Inc., Madison, Wisconsin, USA.) An empirical absorption correction, based on the multiple measurements of equivalent reflections, was applied using the program SADABSIm (Sheldrick, G.M. (1999). SADABS, Bruker Area Detector Absorption Corrections. Bruker AXS Inc., Madison, Wisconsin, USA.).
The space group was confirmed by XPREP routine of SHELXTL (XPREP (1997) Release 5.10; X-ray data Preparation and Reciprocal space Exploration Program, Bruker AXS Inc., Madison, Wisconsin, USA.; SHELXIL (1997) Release 5.10; The Complete Software Package for Single Crystal Structure Determination, Bruker AXS Inc., Madison, Wisconsin, USA.). The structure was solved by direct-methods and refined by full-matrix least squares and difference Fourier techniques with SHELX-97as a part of LinXTL tool box (Sheldrick, G.M. (1997).

Hydrogen atoms were set in calculated positions and refined as riding atoms with a common thermal parameter, except those of the NH moiety and hydrides, which were positioned from residual peaks in the difference Fourier map. The collection parameters and bond distances and angles can be found in tables 5 and 6, respectively.
